Kelly Price has set a May 3, 2011 release date for her sixth album, Kelly, as her new single, "Not My Daddy," is showing some traction.

The new single, which debuted at #20 last week on iTunes, features production and vocals by Mint Condition's Stokley Williams and is approaching a Top 10 spot at radio.

"This song literally wrote itself, which happens to me every once in a while," Kelly Price explains. "The melody came to me first and then I envisioned a live band to truly impact my audience and that's when I called up Stokley. We made this song to encourage lovers to get back to being lovers. Stop parenting one another and just love each other."

The new R&B album, Kelly, will feature additional production by Warryn Campbell, Shep Crawford, Jazz Nixon and Lawrence Waddell.

Kelly has also been added to the stellar line up of performers at the 2011 Essence Music Festival, which takes place this July 1-3 in New Orleans. The Essence Music Festival will celebrate the roots of R&B and will feature over a dozen acts from all genres of R&B. Kelly Price will be a featured performer among other artists including: Mary J. Blige, Kanye West, Jill Scott, Trey Songz, Boyz II Men, Charlie Wilson, Fantasia, Stephanie Mills, George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic, Macy Gray, Mavis Staples, to name a few.
